ARCHBISHOP TAOHE's ILLNESS.

ARCHBISHOP TAOHE'S ILLNESS.
When His Grace Archbishop Tache
left Winnipeg for Montreal few weeks
ago on his journey to Rome it was be-
lieved by those who were intimate with
him, and understood the precarious
state of His Grace's health, that he had
probably seen Winnipeg and st. Boni-
face for the last time. From advices
received from reliable source, it is
learned that the Archbishop is very i'll
in Montreal. Previous to leaving St.
Boniface, Archbishop Tache kept him
self secluded in the palace and worked
very hard Strengthening out his private
business, and performing his duties in
connection with the archdiocese. His
trip to Montreal worked great good and
for TWO or three days he felt better
than for many months, but a relapse
came and His Grace is again in poor
health. The Rev. Father Dugast, who
accompanied the Archbishop to Mon
5treal, has returned to IN innipeg, and

The members of the Protestant Home
Rule Association of Ireland do not
take much stock in the assertion OF
the Ulst r Orangemen that in the event
of Ireland getting her own Parliament
the Catholic population would become
intolerant. Prof. Swift Men ELL, M. F.,
speaking at a meeting of the Protestant
Home Rule Association, held rec 'ntly
in Dublin, said the election of himself,
Protestant, the son of a Protestant
clergyman-had shown the English
public that Irish Protestants if they
were only true to their country had
everything to hope for from their
Catholic fellow countrymen. The Cath
olic priests of Donegal and he (Mr.
McNeilD had gone about the country
working for every vote, fer he wanted
to 90 to the English constituencies
into the very hearts of the Liberal
Unionists-and nail the lie they had
told about the country, that Protestants
and Catholics would fly at each others

good authority that the latest acquisi.
ton to the ranks of the Home Rulers
is no less parsonage than Queen vic.
toria herself. Victoria is said to have
been ''Home Ruler'' in the davs of
the late Prince Consort, but this time
he is in favor of settlement of the
perplexing Irish problem by arranging
on a settled policy of self-government
for that country. Victoria is to be
congratulated on this evidence of COM
mon sense in her old days.

Rev. Father Camper will proceed to
Rome Immediately, as delegate to the
General Chapter of the Oblate Fathers.
1t is quite evident that His Lordship
will remain in Montreal for some
months, as his physicians will not hear
of his return to the west. His Grace is
very popular with the people of Mani
toba, of all denominations, and his ILL
ness is generally regretted, He is now
very old, and the hardships accompany
ing many years of missionary work in
the Northwest is having its effect on
him.

HOME RULE continues the burning
question in English politics. 1t is pro-
posed to hold simultaneously mass meet

0RANGE1sM IN CANADA.

O:angemen in Ireland and Orange.
men in Canada are very much alike
'tasses in everything but ears.' AT
Brockville, Ont. the twenty eighth an.
nual session of the Orange Grand Lodge
of Canada convened recently, and to
show their Ulster brethren that they
are just as intolerant as they were
years ago, they passed the following
resolution
with our brethren in Ireland we
opposed Mr.. Parnell s scheme. fathered
by Mr.. Gladstone, because it gave Ire.
land no representation in the Imperial
Parliament, made no provision for pro-
tecting the Protestant minority, and
placed thu questions of education, the
control of the police, &c, under the
jurisdiction of an Irish Parliament in
Dublin. The tendency and effect of
such legislation would be to damage
the material interests IF Ireland, weaken
British influence, and place the loyalists
of that country in the power of those
who are in our opinion her greatest
enemies"
There is an old saying, somewhat in
elegant but expressive, that ''you can
not expect anything from hog but a
grunt," and we believe it is particu-
larly applicable in this connection. The
Canadian Orangemen are the only por-
ton of the Dominion population that
never for moment think for them
selves, possibly because their minds are
unable to stand the strain. They are
led by INSCRIPTIONS politicians, and do
just as they are told. Because they
have never yet known what it was to
enjoy freedom in it's widest sense, they
would deny the right of the Irish people
to make an effort to secure self-yovern-
ing power. However, they need not 60
to any trouble on account of Ireland.
She will have Home Rule in spite of
the ignor Mt, intolerant Orangemen of
the Canadian Dominion. The selfish
ness of these men can be better under
stood by careful perusal of the above
resolution. They do not care about
anything or any body, as long as their
brethren in Ireland are allowed to usurp
the powers of the common people. Let
them rule in their own brutal and in
tolerant manner, and the devoted wor-
shippers of William I'LL, Prince of
Orange, are supremacy happy.

A GOOD deal of righteous indigna
ton has been stirred up through the
appointment of Henry G.. Hicks as
fourth Judge Of the Hennepin bench.
Seagrave Smith, whom the Hennepin
county bar by unanimous vote saw
fit to recommend, does not meet with
favor with Gov. McGill because-he is
a Democrat, The judiciary must be
made partisan; it has been so willed
by those who have the reins Of govern
ment in hand in this state. Isn't it
about time the Democratic party Of
Minnesota would refuse to listen to the
idle and deceitful promises and preten-
sions of the opposition2 1t would GER
tainly seem SO. Far better indeed to
be an honest partisan even in the small
est elective position than to be non
partisan with only dishonesty and n.y.
pocrisy at the bottom of every and
act and movement. Let us ask no
favors from the Republican party.

In his paper, United Ireland, Mr..
William o. Brien sums up the situation
at the cl SO of the state trials thus :
Every court of the land has been put
in motion, but at the expense only OF
the landlord, and nowhere has the
slightest scintilla of success smiled
upon the operation of the evictor. If
the landlords have been close observers
of the 'Green-street proceedings, we
may expect soon to hear of a very happy
result from the trial. Finding that no
traverser has been punished or detained,
that the plan has come out unscathed,
that not one estate trustee or one de-
pository of the cash has been dis
covered by the whole proceeding, we
may soon look out for settlements upon
the estates where the plan is in opera.

the just and reasonable demand of the

OHAMBERLA1N's EG0TIsM.


Joseph Chamberlain undoubtedly
imagines himself a person of great i'm
portance in the political arena, but his
Importance is purely imaginary, for
since his treachery to Mr.. Gladstone,
he has gradually fallen into an insight
ficant factor in the deliberations of even
the Liberal Unionists, for whom he de-
serted the Liberal leader. One does not
need to look far for the reaso on of this
decadence. While the other dissidents
came forward and without any attempt
at deceit explained why they differed
with their old leader, Chamberlain
played the part of the traitor at the last
hour, and can never more be trusted by
any political party.
The most amusing feature of Mr..
Chamberlain 8 egotism, is his repeated
regrets that the reunion of the Liberals
is being delayed, and that the longer
the rupture continues the more serious
the situation becomes, and the less like
lihood of Cancellation between the fac
lions. While Mr.. Chamberlain deplores
this his egotism becomes more appa-
rent. He suggest; that Mr.. Gladstone,
the recognized leader of the Liberal
party for years, abandon his principles
and conform to the impracticable
theories of self constituted, inconse-
quential leader of a mushroom growth.
Mr.. Chamberlain seems to forget that
the breach in the Liberal party was
brought about by men like himself, only
not so abandoned in principle, and that
Mr.. Gladstone by yielding one particle
of the ground he has taken on the Irish
question would be acknowledging the
mastery of the abandoned Chamberlain.
People who know Mr.. Gladstone and
have watched his political career will
be slow in believing that he will ever
make any concessions to the Liberal
Unionists, The battle must be fought
under the command of the great Eng
llsh statesman or not all. The half
measures of the Liberal dissidentS
would not be acceptable to the Irish
people.

mons. The younger Tories are anxious
to enforce coercion in Ireland, while
the older ones, fearing that such pol
icy might result in disaster, are little
chary about rushing headlong into the
lines of what might now be termed a
formidable and well-disciplined army,
with God and right on their side. These
cid Tories know that in the past every
efford to crush the spirit out Of the
Irish people, although The forces of the
latter were insignificant compared with
what the? are now, was not dazzling
success. and what the chances Of being
able to enforce coercion now, when the
defensive resources of Ireland have as
sumed such gigantic proportions, is the
problem that the older British Tories
are trying to solve. There can be no
doubt that the reason why so many of
those who were followers of Lord Sails.
bury and abandoned him is because
they were opposed to even mild form
of coercion" and he now feels that if he
were to attempt a stronger dose it
would carry dismay into his ranks, and
leave him without even a t'thin red
line" The only Tories who now ap.
pear to be in favor of strong coercive
measures are those whose opinions are
utterly worthless, their sole value being
represented bv their votes. The older
members of the Tory party are not
anxious to enforce coercion. If they
were certain that by granting Home
Rule to Ireland tomorrow their hold
on the reins of government would
be strengthened they would un-
hesitatingly do so, but the more they
attempt to find out the state Of public
opinion, the greater is the change dis
covered in favor of Home Rule. This
is not to be wondered at. The British
masses are gradually awakening to a
realization of the fact that it must cost
considerable amount of money to
carry on the warfare in the interests of
landlords in Ireland, and that this
money is coming indirectly out of the
peoples pockets. While they may not
regard their Irish brethren with the
spirit recommended by the Scriptures,
yet they would sooner see them enjoy
ing any measure of self-government
than be compelled to pay for system
Of warfare from which they can derive
no benefit individually or collectively.
The opinion of the British masses in
turn has welded q wonderful influence
over the Tories who know a good thing
when they see it, and accounts for the
designations and saiftings in the Cabi-
net. The older and more mature mem.
